FAQs for COTY 2022
CarBuyer Singapore’s Car Of The Year award (COTY) is in line with CarBuyer’s ethos, that is, to help the Singaporean car buyers find the best car for their needs. These awards are not about the CarBuyer Singapore team, but about the people who actually spend the money.
CarBuyer Singapore shortlists the nominees from the cars that were launched in Singapore the previous year, between August 2021 to August 2022. While we shortlist the nominees, the winners will be entirely chosen by you - our CarBuyer Singapore readers!
Our focus is choosing cars that can/will appeal to the mainstream buyer within the Singaporean driving environment, and also highlighting the best of the best, cars that truly push the envelope of what consumers should expect.
With our COTY programme, we want to reward the manufacturers that have stepped up their game, and deliver clear benefits to consumers.
Accordingly, the COTY will be presented in classic CarBuyer Singapore fashion, in a way that is simple, timely, authoritative, relevant and entertaining.
